Election of Officers Upon motion duly made and seconded, it was unanimously: RESOLVED, That Aime C. Pommerie be hereby re-elected to Chairman of the Lead Program Review Committee. Upon motion duly made and seconded, it was unanimously: RESOLVED, That R. W. Rosenquest be hereby re-elected to Vice Chairman of the Lead Program Review Committee. *** Representing the Broken Hill Associated Smelters Proprietary, Ltd. -2 EFT 000349 A Review of Commercial Developments Dr. Radtke reviewed the progress of the Zn 75 (Z!I-15l) and indicated that the car had been extremely well received in North America. . Dr. Radtke also reviewed a proposed change to the allocation formula for dues. Such changes, if subsequently approved by the ILZRO Board of Directors would lead to. expanded ILZRO membership among non-integrated mining and custom smelting companies. To illustrate the large world-wide market potential for ILZRO 12 in foundry applications, Mr. Altorfer presented current consumption data for fer rous and non-ferrous foundry alloys. The data presented indicated a potential foundry market for zinc in the U.S.A. as large as the existing die casting market. Member companies were urged to persue the promotion of ILZRO 12 in foundry applications. . 1970 Zinc R&D Authorizations j. After discussion, upon motion duly made and seconded, it was: RESOLVED, That the following research projects with the indicated amounts be recommended to the Board of Directors for funding in-the 1970 ILZRO R&D Program. , PROJECT NUMBER AND TITLE ZM ZM ZE ZE ZM ZM UZE ZE UZE ZM ZM ZM 132A Die Casting Process Improvement 132B Die Casting Process Improvement 138 Improving the Platability of Zinc Die Castings . 98 Plating from Organic Electrolytes 133 Zinc vs. Plastics - An Engineering Evaluation 115 Welding Zinc Coated Structurals 78 Zinc Coatings and Prestressed Concrete 153 Corrosion of Galvanized Steel Domestic Hot & Cold Water Pipes 83 Corrosion, Resistant Fasteners for Galvanized Structurals 146 Kinetics of the Galvanizing Process 135 Physical Properties of Iron-Zinc Compounds 124 Galvanizing Characteristics of Steels and their Weldments ' 1970 FUNDS AUTHORIZED $125,000 50,400 53,000 24,000 19,000 10,750 15,000 16,300 15,000 16,500 .5? 000 3*5,000 .3- - ' EPI 000350 PROJECT HUMBER AM) TITIE (continued) . . 1970 FUNDS AUTHORIZED The committee requested that it be advised .subsequently by the ILZRO staff concerning the types of steels to be included in the program and the areas of the -world from which steels had been selected for inclusion in the program. ; i ZM 113 Alloyed Galvanized Coatings ZE 36 Zinc Rich Paint ZE 114 Painting of Sprayed Zinc ZM 92 Direct Conversion of Particulate Zinc Professor Scacciati reviewed the progress of this program after which Mr. T.
